The art of doodling – Japanese Tumblr is full of hand drawn classic album covers

Everyone’s done it at some point or another, bored in class with only a pen and paper at hand you end up doodling things. Well Japanese music fan SHOW5SAN has taken that timeless idea and turned it into the Handrawing$$$$$hit! blog.

Prefaced with the Japanese word for handwriting and the note ‘personal copy only’ – which we assume is his way of saying he’s doing these for himself only – the blog is full of pretty amazing renditions of classic album covers, with a lot of rap but also jazz, rock and more. Even better it looks like SHOW5SAN has also done cassette covers and framed renditions of classic The Source magazine covers.

The attention to detail is amazing. We’ve embedded a few of our favourites below. [via Egotrip]
